I created a block print-inspired artwork for the Sausalito Art Festival's “Icons of the American Worker.“ Inspired by the prompt to create artwork featuring icons of the American worker, I designed this block print-inspired piece featuring the original icons of the American Worker, the Tall Tales.

My first independent publishing project, Penny Penguin Finds Her Way Home was written by a local grandfather and based on a story he told his daughters growing up. If that weren’t sweet enough, he’s opted to give the profits to the Mario Lemueux Foundation.

Angelus Magazine - the official magazine of the Archdiocese of Las Angeles - commissioned me to create for them an illustrated cover within a four day window. The challenge was met and the finished product was received with great enthusiasm.

I was invited to contribute both original artwork and an essay to Created Book by Likeable Art, a gorgeous coffee-table-style book full of custom art and insights by over 50 of the Catholic world's leading creative minds. I contributed two pieces - one traditional and one digital - which were featured in the book.

I created artwork for The stArt Award, a competition for rising illustrators organized by Dutch illustrative magazine Boekie Boekie. My work was subsequently featured prominently on the magazine's various social media platforms.

I created an artwork (acrylic and digital) and was awarded out of thousands of international artists in a graphic design competition promoting human rights awareness.
